SunCoke Energy, Inc.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
1. General
Description of Business
SunCoke Energy, Inc. (“SunCoke Energy,” “SunCoke,” “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us”) is the largest independent producer of high-quality coke in the Americas, as measured by tons of coke produced each year, and has over 55 years of coke production experience. Coke is a principal raw material in the blast furnace steelmaking process and is produced by heating metallurgical coal in a refractory oven, which releases certain volatile components from the coal, thus transforming the coal into coke. Additionally, we own and operate a logistics business, which primarily provides handling and/or mixing services of coal and other bulk products and liquidsaggregates to third-party customers as well as to our own cokemaking facilities.
We have designed, developed, built, own and operate five5 cokemaking facilities in the United States (“U.S.”), which consist of our Haverhill, Middletown, Granite City, Jewell and Indiana Harbor cokemaking facilities. Our cokemaking facilities have collective nameplate capacity to produce approximately 4.2 million tons of blast furnace coke per year. Additionally, we have designed and operate one1 cokemaking facility in Brazil under licensing and operating agreements on behalf of ArcelorMittal Brasil S.A. (“ArcelorMittal Brazil”), which has approximately 1.7 million tons of annual cokemaking capacity. To diversify our business and customer base, SunCoke has been exploring the foundry coke market and testing production capacity. We expect we will be in a position to produce and sell foundry coke and by-product industrial coke in 2021. Foundry coke is a high-quality grade of coke that is used at foundries to melt iron and various metals in cupola furnaces.
Our cokemaking ovens utilize efficient, modern heat recovery technology designed to combust the coal’s volatile components liberated during the cokemaking process and use the resulting heat to create steam or electricity for sale. This differs from by-product cokemaking, which repurposes the coal’s liberated volatile components for other uses. We have constructed the only greenfield cokemaking facilities in the U.S. in approximately 30 years and are the only North American coke producer that utilizes heat recovery technology in the cokemaking process. We provide steam pursuant to steam supply and purchase agreements with our customers. Electricity is sold into the regional power market or pursuant to energy sales agreements.
Our logistics business provides handling and/or mixing services to steel, coke (including some of our domestic cokemaking facilities), electric utility, coal producing and other manufacturing based customers. Our logistics business consists of Convent Marine Terminal (“CMT”), Kanawha River Terminal (“KRT”), SunCoke Lake Terminal (“Lake Terminal”) and Dismal River Terminal (“DRT”) and has collective capacity to mix and/or transload more than 40 million tons of coal and other aggregates annually and has total storage capacity of approximately 3 million tons.
Our consolidated financial statements include SunCoke Energy Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”), a wholly-owned subsidiary, which owns 98 percent of our Haverhill, Middletown, and Granite City cokemaking facilities and 100 percent of CMT, KRT and Lake Terminal. During all periods presented, SunCoke is considered the primary beneficiary of the Partnership as it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the Partnership's economic performance.
Incorporated in Delaware in 2010 and headquartered in Lisle, Illinois, we became a publicly-traded company in 2011 and our stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “SXC.”
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim reporting. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In management’s opinion, the financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the periodsperiod ended June 30, 20192020 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the entire year. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” ASU 2016-02 requires leases to be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by all leases with terms of more than 12 months. Subsequently, the FASB has issued various ASUs to provide further clarification around certain aspects of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, “Leases.” We adopted the standard effective January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition approach and elected not to adjust prior comparative periods.  Upon adoption, the Company recognized right-of-use assets and lease liabilities of $5.1 million at January 1, 2019. See Note 9.

2. Acquisitions
Simplification Transaction
Prior to June 28, 2019, SunCoke owned a 60.4 percent limited partner interest in the PartnershipSunCoke Energy Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership") as well as our 2.0 percent general partner interest. The remaining 37.6 percent limited partner interest in the Partnership was held by public unitholders. On June 28, 2019, the Company acquired all 17,727,249of the outstanding common units of the Partnership not already owned by SunCoke in exchange for 24,818,149 newly issued SunCoke common shares (the "Simplification Transaction"). Additionally, the final pro-rated quarterly Partnership distribution was settled with 635,502 newly issued SunCoke common shares. Following the completion of the Simplification Transaction, the Partnership became a wholly-owned subsidiary of SunCoke, the Partnership common units have ceased to be publicly traded and the Partnership’s incentive distribution rights were eliminated. As of January 1, 2020, the
7

Partnership merged with and into SunCoke controlled the Partnership both before and after the Simplification Transaction. Therefore, the change in our ownership interest was accounted for as an equity transaction, and no gain or loss was recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Income for this transaction.
The following table summarizes the non-cash (decreases) increases on our balance sheet related to the Simplification Transaction reflecting the changes in ownershipEnergy Partners Finance Corp. ("Finance Corp."), which is also a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership and a step-up in the tax basis in the underlying assets acquired:

Company.
Additionally, the Company incurred transaction costs totaling $10.7 million, of which $5.4 million were incurred by SunCoke and were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2019. The remaining transaction costs were incurred by the Partnership, resulting in $4.4 million and $4.9 million of expense included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $0.4 million was incurred during 2018.

SunCoke controlled the Partnership both before and after these unit acquisitions. Therefore, the cash paid for the Partnership units in excess of the net book value of Partnership interest acquired was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital, reducing SunCoke’s equity balance. Upon the closing of the Simplification Transaction, the Company's program to purchase outstanding Partnership common units was terminated.

5. Income Taxes
At the end of each interim period, we make our best estimate of the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year and the impact of discrete items, if any, and adjust the rate as necessary.
The Company recorded anincome tax expense of $2.2 million and $12.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 22.0 percent and 47.9 percent, respectively, as compared to the 21.0 percent federal statutory rate. Differences between the Company's effective tax rates and the federal statutory rate during the six months ended June 30, 2020 were primarily driven by the revaluation of certain deferred tax assets due to lower apportioned
8

state tax rates, which resulted in $6.5 million of deferred income tax expense. Additionally, the new tax law passed in response to the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19"), the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act, which was enacted March 27, 2020, allows the Company to carry back net operating losses generated in 2019 to each of the five years preceding 2019. As a result, SunCoke expects to receive income tax refunds of approximately $3.9 million for prior year taxes paid and recorded a tax benefit of $1.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
The Company recorded income tax expense of $3.2 million and $6.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 49.2 percent and 28.6 percent, respectively, as compared to the 21.0 percent federal statutory rate. Prior to the Simplification Transaction, the income attributable to the noncontrolling interest in the Partnership was not taxable to SunCoke. Upon closing of the Simplification Transaction, this income became taxable to SunCoke and has increased the effective tax rate. Differences between the Company's effective tax rates and the statutory rate during the six months ended June 30, 2019 were primarily due to the impact of state income taxes. With the closing of the Simplification Transaction, the income previously attributable to noncontrolling interest in the Partnership became 100 percent attributable to SunCoke and, therefore, will now be taxable to the Company, which increased the Company's effective tax rate in the current and future periods. The Simplification Transaction also resulted in a $43.7 million decrease to deferred income taxes on the consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2019, which was recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital, as discussed in Note 2.
The Company recorded income tax expense of $2.2 million and $4.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, resulting in effective tax rate of 11.6 percent and 12.4 percent, respectively, as compared to the 21.0 percent federal statutory rate. The difference between the Company’s effective tax rates and the statutory rate in both periods was primarily the result of earnings attributable to its noncontrolling ownership interests in partnerships.

8. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
Legal Matters
The EPA        Between 2005 and 2012, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (“OEPA”) issued Notices of Violations (“NOVs”), alleging violations of air emission operating permits for our Haverhill and Granite City cokemaking facilities which stemmed from alleged violations of our air emission operating permits for these facilities. We worked in a cooperative manner with the EPA, the Ohio Environmental Protection AgencyOEPA and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency to address the allegations and, in November 2014, entered into a consent decree with these parties in federal district court in the Southern District of Illinois (the “Court”) with these parties.Illinois. The consent decree included a $2.2 million civil penalty payment, which was paid in December 2014, as well asand a commitment to undertake capital projects to improve the reliability of the energy recovery systems and enhance environmental performance at the Haverhill and Granite City facilities. In the third quarter of 2018, the Court entered an amendment to the consent decree, which provides the Haverhill and Granite City facilities with additional time to perform necessary maintenance on the flue gas desulfurization systems without exceeding consent decree limits. The emissions associated with this maintenance will be mitigated in accordance with the amendment, and there are no civil penalty payments associated with this amendment performance. The Haverhill project at Haverhill was completed in 2016. The project at2016, but completion of the Granite City project was duedelayed to be completed in February 2019, but was instead completed in June 2019, and the Company is in discussionswith SunCoke agreeing to pay an immaterial amount associated with the government entities regarding, among other things, the timing thereof. We spent $148.9 million related to these environmental projects since work began in 2012.delay.
Between 2010 and 2016, SunCoke Energy has also received certain NOVs, Findings of Violations (“FOVs”), and information requests from the EPA, alleging violations of air operating permit conditions related to our Indiana Harbor cokemaking facility, which allege violationsfacility. To reach a settlement of certain air operating permit conditions for this facility. The Clean Air Act (the “CAA”) provides the EPAthese NOVs and FOVs, we met regularly with the authority to issue, among other actions, an order to enforce a State Implementation Plan (“SIP”) 30 days after an NOV. The CAA also authorizes EPA, enforcement of other non-SIP requirements immediately after an FOV. Generally, an NOV applies to SIPs and requires the EPA to wait 30 days, while an FOV applies to all other provisions (such as federal regulations) of the CAA, and has no waiting period. The NOVs and/or FOVs were received in 2010, 2012, 2013, 2015 and 2016. After discussions with the EPA and the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (“IDEM”) in 2010, resolution of the NOVs/FOVs was postponed by mutual agreement because of ongoing discussions regarding the NOVs at Haverhill and Granite City. In January 2012, the Company began working in a cooperative manner to address the allegations with the EPA, the IDEM and Cokenergy, LLC,LLC., an independent power producer that owns and operates an energy facility, including heat recovery equipment and a flue gas desulfurization system, that processes hot flue gas from our Indiana Harbor facility to produce steam and electricity and to reduce the sulfur and particulate content of such flue gas.
The EPA, IDEM, SunCoke Energy and Cokenergy, LLC met regularly since those discussions commenced to reach a settlement of the NOVsproduce steam and FOVs. Capital projects were underway during this time to address items that would be included in conjunction with a settlement.electricity. A consent decree among the parties was entered by the federal district court in the Northern District of Indiana during the fourth quarter of 2018. The settlement includesincluded a $2.5 million civil penalty that was paid in the fourth quarter of 2018. Further, the settlement consists2018, and implementation of certain capital projects, already underwaycompleted during the fourth quarter of 2019, to improve reliability and environmental performance of the coke ovens at the facility.
The Company is a party to certain other pending and threatened claims, including matters related to commercial and tax disputes, product liability, employment claims, personal injury claims, premises-liabilitycommon law tort claims allegations of exposures to toxic substances and environmental claims. Although the ultimate outcome of these claims cannot be ascertained at this time, it is reasonably possible that some portion of these claims could be resolved unfavorably to the Company. Management of the Company believes that any liability which may arise from these claims would not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Black Lung Benefit Liabilities
The Company has obligations related to coal workers’ pneumoconiosis, or black lung, benefits to certain of our former coal miners and their dependents. Such benefits are provided for under Title IV of the Federal Coal Mine and Safety Act of 1969 and subsequent amendments, as well as for black lung benefits provided in the states of Virginia, Kentucky and West Virginia pursuant to workers’ compensation legislation. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“PPACA”), which was implemented in 2010, amended previous legislation related to coal workers’ black lung obligations. PPACA provides for the automatic extension of awarded lifetime benefits to surviving spouses and changes the legal criteria used to assess and award claims.
        We act as a self-insurer for both state and federal black lung benefits and adjust our liability each year based upon actuarial calculations of our expected future payments for these benefits.

Our independent actuarial consultants calculate the present value of the estimated black lung liability annually based on actuarial models utilizing our population of former coal miners, historical payout patterns of both the Company and the industry, actuarial mortality rates, disability incidence, medical costs, death benefits, dependents, discount rates and the current federally mandated payout rates. The estimated liability may be impacted by future changes in the statutory mechanisms, modifications by court decisions and changes in filing patterns driven by perceptions of success by claimants and their advisors, the impact of which cannot be estimated. The estimated liability was $50.9$55.9 million and $49.4$55.1 million at June 30, 20192020 and
10

December 31, 2018,2019, respectively, of which the current portion of $4.5$4.6 million was included in accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in both periods.
        On February 1, 2013, SunCoke obtained commercial insurance for any black lung liabilities for employees with a last date of employment after that date. Also during 2013, we were reauthorized to continue to self-insure black lung liabilities incurred prior to February 1, 2013 by the U.S. Department of Labor's Division of Coal Mine Workers' Compensation (“DCMWC”) in exchange for $8.4 million of collateral. In July 2019, the DCMWC required that SunCoke, along with a number of other companies, file an application and supporting documentation for reauthorization to self-insure our legacy black lung obligations incurred prior to February 1, 2013. The Company provided the requested information in the fourth quarter of 2019. The DCMWC subsequently notified the Company in a letter dated February 21, 2020 that the Company was reauthorized to self-insure certain of its black lung obligations; however, the reauthorization is contingent upon the Company providing collateral of $40.4 million to secure certain of its black lung obligations. This proposed collateral requirement is a substantial increase from the $8.4 million in collateral that the Company currently provides to secure these self-insured black lung obligations. The reauthorization process provided the Company with the right to appeal the security determination. SunCoke exercised its right to appeal the DCMWC’s security determination and provided additional information supporting the Company’s position in May 2020. If the Company’s appeal is unsuccessful, the Company may be required to provide additional collateral to receive the self-insurance reauthorization from the DCMWC, which could potentially reduce the Company’s liquidity.
9. Leases
The Company leases land, office space, equipment, railcars and locomotives. Arrangements are assessed at inception to determine if a lease exists and, with the adoption of ASC 842, “Leases,” right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Because the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate of return, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the inception of a lease to calculate the present value of lease payments. The Company has elected to apply the short-term lease exception for all asset classes, therefore, excluding all leases with a term of less than 12 months from the balance sheet, and will recognize the lease payments in the period they are incurred. Additionally, the Company has elected to account for lease and nonlease components of an arrangement, such as assets and services, as a single lease component for all asset classes.
Certain of our long-term leases include one or more options to renew or to terminate, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one month to 50 years. The impact of lease renewals or terminations are included in the expected lease term to the extent the Company is reasonably certain to exercise the renewal or termination. The Company's finance leases are immaterial to our consolidated financial statements.

10. Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) has been computed by dividing net income attributable to SunCoke Energy, Inc. by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Except where the result would be anti-dilutive, diluted earnings per share has been computed to give effect to share-based compensation awards using the treasury stock method.
The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the weighted-average number of common shares used to compute basic EPS to those used to compute diluted EPS:

11. Fair Value Measurement
The Company measures certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair value disclosures are reflected in a three-level hierarchy, maximizing the use of observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability on the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for an identical asset or liability in an active market.
Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for a similar asset or liability in an active market or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement of the asset or liability.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company's cash equivalents, which amounted to $5.5 million and $3.2 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively,cash equivalents were measured at fair value at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. These inputs are classified as Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy.
CMT Contingent Consideration
13

In connection with the acquisition of CMT in 2015, the Company entered into a contingent consideration arrangement that runs through 2022 and requires the Company to make future payments to The Cline Group based on future volume over a specified threshold, price and contract renewals. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated based on a probability-weighted analysis using significant inputs that are not observable in the market, or Level 3 inputs. Key assumptions included probability adjusted levels of handling services provided by CMT, anticipated price per ton on future sales and probability of contract renewal, including length of future contracts, volume commitment, and anticipated price per ton. The fair value of the contingent consideration was $3.8 million and $5.0 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and was primarily included in other deferred credits and liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The decrease in the contingent consideration liability during 2019 was the result of a $0.9 million payment made in the first quarter as well as a decrease in expected future payments based on changes in expected throughput volumes related to the long-term, take-or-pay agreements.
Certain Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value
At June 30, 20192020 and December 31, 2018,2019, the fair value of the Company’s total debt was estimated to be $835.6$689.9 million and $822.8$776.1 million, respectively, compared to a carrying amount of $852.0$787.1 million and $859.0$800.5 million, respectively. The fair value was estimated by management based upon estimates of debt pricing provided by financial institutions, which are considered Level 2 inputs.

13.12. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Cokemaking
Substantially all our coke sales are made pursuant to long-term, take-or-pay coke sales agreements with AM USA, AK Steel and U.S. Steel, who are three of the largest blast furnace steelmakers in North America. The take-or-pay provisions in our agreements require our customers to purchase all or substantially all of the coke volumes produced as specified in the agreements or pay the contract price for any tonnage they do not purchase. The take-or-pay provisions of our agreements also require us to deliver minimum annual tonnage, which vary by contract, and have historically been approximately 4.1 million tons, covering at least 90 percent of each facility's nameplate capacity.
As a result of the impacts the COVID-19 global pandemic has had on our customers, in July 2020, SunCoke entered into customer agreement amendments, providing near-term coke supply relief for our customers, in exchange for extending certain agreements These amended agreements reduced the minimum tonnage we are required to deliver to our customers to approximately 3.8 million tons, 3.7 million tons and 3.3 million tons in 2020, 2021 and 2022 through contract expiration, respectively. These amended coke sales agreements have an average remaining term of approximately six years.

The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on segment Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted for any impairments, lossgain on extinguishment of debt, changes to our contingent consideration liability related to our acquisition of CMT, loss on the disposal of our interest in VISA SunCoke, and/or transaction costs incurred as part of the Simplification Transaction. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to net income or operating income under GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures in other businesses.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure in assessing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors because it highlights trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP measures and because it eliminates items that have less bearing on our operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be considered a substitute for net income or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Below is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, which is its most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:

In connection with the CMT acquisition, the Company entered into a contingent consideration arrangement that required the Company to make future payments to the seller based on future volume over a specified threshold, price and contract renewals. Contingent consideration adjustments in the first half of 2019 were primarily the result of modifications to the volume forecast. This liability was written to 0 during the third quarter of 2019, and the related contract was terminated in 2020.

15. Supplemental Condensed Consolidating Financial Information
Certain 100 percent owned subsidiaries of the Company serve as guarantors of the obligations under the Credit Agreement (“Guarantor Subsidiaries”). These guarantees are full and unconditional (subject, in the case of the Guarantor Subsidiaries, to customary release provisions as described below) and joint and several. For purposes of the following information, SunCoke Energy is referred to as “Issuer.” The indenture dated May 24, 2017 among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., governs subsidiaries designated as “Guarantor Subsidiaries.” All other consolidated subsidiaries of the Company are collectively referred to as “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries.”
The ability of the Partnership and Indiana Harbor to pay dividends and make loansowned by public unitholders prior to the Company is restricted under the partnership agreementsSimplification Transaction.

Table of the Partnership and Indiana Harbor, respectively. The Credit Agreement governing the Partnership’s credit facility and the indenture governing the Partnership Notes contain customary provisions which would potentially restrict the Partnership’s ability to make distributions or loans to the Company under certain circumstances. For the year ended December 31, 2018, less than 25 percent of net assets were restricted. Additionally, certain coal mining entities are designated as unrestricted subsidiaries. As such, all the subsidiaries described above are presented as “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries.” There have been no changes to the “Guarantor Subsidiaries” and “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries” during 2019.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements of expected future developments, as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This discussion contains forward-looking statements about our business, operations and industry that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements regarding our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Our future results and financial condition may differ materially from those we currently anticipate as a result of the factors we describe in our filings with the SEC, including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and under “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements.
Currently, such risks and uncertainties also include: SunCoke’s ability to manage its business during and after the COVID-19 pandemic; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on SunCoke’s results of operations, revenues, earnings and cash flows; SunCoke’s ability to reduce costs and capital spending in response to the COVID-19 pandemic; SunCoke’s balance sheet and liquidity throughout and following the COVID-19 pandemic; SunCoke’s prospects for financial performance and achievement of strategic objectives following the COVID-19 pandemic; capital allocation strategy following the COVID-19-related outbreak; and the general impact on our industry and on the U.S. and global economy resulting from COVID-19, including actions by domestic and foreign governments and others to contain the spread, or mitigate the severity, thereof.
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) is based on financial data derived from the financial statements prepared in accordance with the United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and certain other financial data that is prepared using a non-GAAP measure. For a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measure to its most comparable GAAP component, see Non-GAAP Financial Measures at the end of this Item and Note 1413 to our consolidated financial statements.
Our MD&A is provided in addition to the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes to assist readers in understanding our results of operations, financial condition and cash flow.
Overview
SunCoke Energy, Inc. (“SunCoke Energy,” “SunCoke,” “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us”) is the largest independent producer of high-quality coke in the Americas, as measured by tons of coke produced each year, and has over 55 years of coke production experience. Coke is a principal raw material in the blast furnace steelmaking process and is produced by heating metallurgical coal in a refractory oven, which releases certain volatile components from the coal, thus transforming the coal into coke. We also provideown and operate a logistics business that primarily provides handling and/or mixing services to steel, coke (including some of our domestic cokemaking facilities), electric utility, coal producing and other manufacturing based customers.  
Cokemaking
We have designed, developed, built, own and operate five cokemaking facilities in the United States (“U.S.”), which consist of our Haverhill, Middletown, Granite City, Jewell and Indiana Harbor cokemaking facilities. These five cokemaking facilities have collective nameplate capacity to produce approximately 4.2 million tons of blast furnace ("furnace") coke per year. Additionally, we have designed and operate one cokemaking facility in Brazil under licensing and operating agreements on behalf of ArcelorMittal Brasil S.A. (“ArcelorMittal Brazil”), which has approximately 1.7 million tons of annual cokemaking capacity. To diversify our business and customer base, SunCoke has been exploring the foundry coke market and testing production capacity. We expect we will be in a position to produce and sell foundry coke and by-product industrial coke in 2021. Foundry coke is a high-quality grade of coke that is used at foundries to melt iron and various metals in cupola furnaces.
Our core business model is predicated on providing steelmakers an alternative to investing capital in their own captive coke production facilities. We direct our marketing efforts principally towards steelmaking customers that require coke for use in their blast furnaces. Our U.S. coke sales are made pursuant to long-term, take-or-pay agreements with ArcelorMittal USA LLC and/or its affiliates (“AM USA”), AK Steel Holding Corporation (“AK Steel”) and United States Steel Corporation (“U.S. Steel”), who are three of the largest blast furnace steelmakers in North America. These coke sales agreements have a weighted average remaining term of approximately fivesix years based on annual nameplate capacity and contain pass-through provisions for costs we incur in the cokemaking process, including coal costs (subject to meeting contractual coal-to-coke yields), operating and maintenance expenses, costs related to the transportation of coke to our customers, taxes (other than income taxes) and costs associated with changes in regulation. The coal component of the Jewell coke price is based on the weighted-average contract price of third-party coal purchases at our Haverhill facility applicable to AM USA coke sales. To date, our coke customers have satisfied their obligations under these agreements.
Our steelmaking        Steelmaking customers continue to operate in a challenging environment. In response to the decline in end user demand as well as in an environment that is challenged by global overcapacity and during 2019 they have experienced declining steel sales prices.  While U.S. Steel restarted botheffort to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19"), in March 2020, end user manufacturers began idling plants, which directly and adversely impacted our customers. As a result, U.S. steel production utilization rate declined approximately 25 percent from a stable 80 percent in December 2019 to approximately 55 percent in
18

June 2020. In response to this decrease in demand for steel production, certain blast furnaces at its Granite City Works facility during 2018, it recently announced it will temporarily idle twohave idled and other blast furnaces in the U.S. This does notsteelmaking facilities that continue to operate have a direct impact onturned down production. In order to help navigate through this challenging environment, SunCoke but it may impact the coke market. Imports of finished steel have decreased from approximately 23 percent of domestic steel consumption in 2018 to approximately 19 percent of domestic steel consumption in June of 2019.  Despite the decrease in imports, domestic capacity utilization is below 80 percent. Due to the take-or-pay nature of our contractshas worked with our customers to provide near-term coke supply relief for customers in exchange for extending certain contracts. See further discussion in "Recent Developments."
We expect it will take substantial time to return to normalized production levels, but given current market uncertainties and uncertainty regarding the decliningduration, severity and potential resurgence on the COVID-19 pandemic, we cannot predict when production levels will normalize. Before steel production ramps back up, stockpiles throughout the supply chain likely will be utilized and end user demand and lower prices arewill likely not expectedreturn to have a material impact on our full-year results.its previous levels until the overall economy recovers.
The coke sales agreement and energy sales agreement with AK Steel at our Haverhill facility are subject to early termination by AK Steel only if AK Steel meets both of the following two criteria: (1) AK Steel permanently shuts down operation of the iron producing portion of its Ashland Works Plant and (2) AK Steel has not acquired or begun construction of a new blast furnace in the U.S. to replace, in whole or in part, the Ashland Works Plant iron production capacity. If AK Steel were able to satisfy both criteria and chose to elect early termination, AK Steel must provide two years advance notice of the termination. During the two-year notice period, AK Steel must continue to perform under the terms of the coke sales agreement and energy sales agreement. On January 28, 2019, AK Steel announced its intention to permanently close its

Ashland Works Plant by the end of 2019. Were the Ashland Plant to permanently shut down, we believe AK Steel has not and would not satisfy the second criterion. No other coke sales agreement has an early termination clause.
Our Granite City facility and the first phase of our Haverhill facility, or Haverhill I, have steam generation facilities, which use hot flue gas from the cokemaking process to produce steam for sale to customers, pursuant to steam supply and purchase agreements. Granite City sells steam to U.S. Steel and Haverhill I provides steam, at minimal cost, to Altivia Petrochemicals, LLC. Our Middletown facility and the second phase of our Haverhill facility, or Haverhill II, have cogeneration plants that use the hot flue gas created by the cokemaking process to generate electricity, which either is sold into the regional power market or to AK Steel pursuant to energy sales agreements. Our Haverhill II facility amended agreement with AK Steel expires in 2021, at which time Haverhill II intends to continue to generate electricity for sale at prevailing market rates, either into the regional power market or to AK Steel.

Logistics
Our logistics business consists of Convent Marine Terminal (“CMT”), Kanawha River Terminal (“KRT”), Lake Terminal and Dismal River Terminal (“DRT”). CMT is one of the largest export terminals on the U.S. Gulf Coast. CMT provides strategic access to seaborne markets for coal and other industrial materials. Supporting low-cost Illinois Basin coal producers, theThe terminal provides loading and unloading services and has direct rail access. With its top of the line shiploader, CMTaccess and has the current capability to transload 15 million tons annually.annually with its top of

the line shiploader. The facility is supported by long-term contracts with volume commitments covering 10 million tons of its current capacity. The facility also serves coal mining customers as well as other merchant business, including aggregates (crushed stone) and petroleum coke. CMT's efficient barge unloading capabilities complement its rail and truck offerings and provide the terminal with the ability to transload and mix a significantly broader variety of materials, including petroleum coke and other materials from barges at its dock. KRT is a leading metallurgical and thermal coal mixing and handling terminal service provider with collective capacity to mix and transload 25 million tons annually through its two operations in West Virginia. Lake Terminal and DRT provide coal handling and mixing services to SunCoke's Indiana Harbor and Jewell cokemaking operations, respectively.
Our logistics business has the collective capacity to mix and/or transload more than 40 million tons of coal and other aggregates annually and has storage capacity of approximately 3 million tons. Our terminals act as intermediaries between our customers and end users by providing transloading and mixing services. Materials are transported in numerous ways, including rail, truck, barge or ship. We do not take possessiontitle of the materials handled but instead derive our revenues by providing handling and/or mixing services to our customers on a per ton basis. Revenues are recognized when services are provided as defined by customer contracts.

Billings to CMT customers for take-or-pay volume shortfalls based on pro-rata volume commitments under take-or-pay contracts that are in excess of billings earned for Logistics services provided to our domestic cokemaking facilities are recorded as contract liabilities and characterized as deferred revenue on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred revenue will be recognized at the earliestprovided under contracts with terms equivalent to those of i) when the performance obligation is satisfied; ii) when the performance obligation has expired, based on the terms of the contract; or iii) when the likelihood that the customer would exercise its right to the performance obligation becomes remote.arm's-length transactions.
The financial performance of our logistics business is substantially dependent upon a limited number of customers. Our        Certain CMT customers are impacted by seaborne export market dynamics. Fluctuations in the benchmark price for coal delivery into northwest Europe, as referenced in the Argus/McCloskey's Coal Price Index report (“API2 index price”), as well as Newcastle index coal prices, as referenced in the Argus/McCloskey's Coal Price Index report (“API6 index price”), which reflect low-ash coal prices shipped from Australia, contribute to our customers' decisions to place tons into the export market and thus impact transloading volumes through CMT. Our KRT terminals serve two primary domestic markets: metallurgical coal trade and thermal coal trade. Metallurgical markets are primarily impacted by steel prices and blast furnace operating levels, whereas thermal markets are impacted by natural gas prices and electricity demand.
API2 and API6 prices declined induring the first half of 2019 from the end of 20182020 by approximately 435 percent and 2924 percent, respectively, driven byreflecting the continued reduced demand from Europe, Asia and the Mediterranean regions and increasingincreased Russian coal supply. While we expectAdditionally, in an effort to slow the U.S. tospread of COVID-19, many international ports continue to be closed, which has put further pressure on export volumes. Challenging market conditions have also impacted the volume of coal moving through our domestic logistics terminals, including the terminals that serve our own cokemaking facilities as a result of the volume relief provided to our Domestic Coke customers.
        Historically, a significant participantportion of our logistics business was derived from a long-term, take-or-pay contract with Foresight Energy LLC ("Foresight"). On March 10, 2020, Foresight filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and our contract with Foresight was subsequently rejected. CMT is handling Foresight tons in 2020 under a new contract with Javelin Global Commodities (UK) Ltd (“Javelin”) and is in the seaborne coal trade, we anticipate export volumes to be lower in 2019 as compared to 2018.

Recent Developments
COVID-19. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a pandemic. Our facilities have continued to operate during the COVID-19 pandemic due to our inclusion in the Critical Manufacturing Sector as defined by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and Items Impacting Comparabilitythe designation as an essential business by state and local government authorities.
Our top priority has been and continues to be the safety and health of our employees and contractors. In response to the outbreak, we established an internal task force of subject matter experts, initiated enhanced health and safety

Simplification Transaction. Prior to June 28, 2019, SunCoke owned a 60.4 percent limited partner interest in SunCoke Energy Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”) as well as our 2.0 percent general partner interest. The remaining 37.6 percent limited partner interest in the Partnership was held by public unitholders. On June 28, 2019, the Company acquired all 17,727,249 outstanding common units of the Partnership not already owned by SunCoke in exchange for 24,818,149 newly issued SunCoke common shares (the "Simplification Transaction"). Additionally, the final pro-rated quarterly Partnership distribution was settled with 635,502 newly issued SunCoke common shares. Following the completion of the Simplification Transaction, the Partnership became a wholly-owned subsidiary of SunCoke.

measures across our facilities and enacted a work from home program for all qualifying personnel. The Simplification Transaction was accountedmajority of qualifying personnel have returned to working on-site. We have implemented screening procedures consistent with U.S. Centers for Disease Control (“CDC”) recommendations at each of our sites, which may include screen questionnaires and temperature checks for employees, contractors, or other service providers. Additionally, to ensure employee safety, we have also adopted protocols consistent with CDC, state, and local guidance, which include but are not limited to increased cleaning and disinfection, social distancing, physical separations, and, in certain instances, mask-wearing.
We are closely monitoring the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 on all aspects of our business, including how it has and will impact our suppliers. We have not experienced any significant impacts or interruptions with respect to our ability to procure coal as a non-cash equity transaction,result of COVID-19, and no gain or loss was recognizedwe will continue to closely monitor our inventory levels to mitigate the risk of any potential supply interruptions.
Customer Contract Amendments and Revised 2020 Guidance. Throughout the second quarter of 2020, SunCoke has been engaged in discussions with its steelmaking customers regarding market challenges presented by the current COVID-19 global pandemic. These discussions have addressed near-term coke supply relief for customers in exchange for extending certain contracts.
In July 2020, SunCoke reached an agreement with AK Steel for a supply reduction of 200 thousand tons of coke in 2020, including a 125 thousand ton reduction at Haverhill II and a 75 thousand ton reduction at Middletown, in exchange for extending the Haverhill II contract from December 31, 2021 to June 30, 2023.
Also in July 2020, SunCoke reached an agreement with AM USA to reduce supply by approximately 300 thousand coke tons in 2020 in exchange for extending the Haverhill I and Jewell contracts to December 31, 2025. Under the new contracts, SunCoke will produce a combined 800 thousand tons for the 2021 contract year and a combined 400 thousand tons on an annualized basis for the 2022 through 2025 contract years. In connection with these discussions, AM USA withdrew its notice declaring a force majeure event.
As we temporarily ramp down coke production in 2020 and address market conditions in the logistics business, we have taken several steps to reduce costs and optimize our operations. The impact of these actions along with lower volumes will result in a reduction in 2020 Adjusted EBITDA of $40 million to $50 million from our previous expectations. We now expect 2020 Adjusted EBITDA to be between $190 million and $200 million. Additionally, as a result of these changes as well as anticipated changes in working capital, we now expect full year 2020 cash from operating activities of approximately $116 million to $136 million. We also expect 2020 capital expenditures of approximately $80 million.
We are also evaluating our cost structure to ensure that we remain a low-cost provider. We have taken further actions, including a reduction in force, which is anticipated to result in full year savings of approximately $10 million in 2021.
Our business model is built on long-term customer relationships. The actions we have taken, together with our customers, not only address all the near-term contracts that were approaching expiration, but also further strengthen our long-term customer relationships and add meaningful certainty and stability to our business.
The Company expects that the impacts of COVID-19 and related economic conditions on our future results will continue to evolve in ways that are difficult to anticipate. See “Part II - Item 1A - Risk Factors” for additional discussion.
2020 Revised Key Initiatives. With these new challenges, SunCoke's primary focus in 2020 will be to:
Successfully navigate through the COVID-19 pandemic. SunCoke will continue to make every effort to protect the safety and well-being of employees and contractors during this health crisis.
Deliver operational excellence and optimize asset base. SunCoke will continue to deliver strong operational performance and asset optimization while following all safety guidelines.
Support customer base and successful relief negotiation. SunCoke's business model is based on long-term partnerships with our coke customers. We will continue to support our customers to help them navigate through the current crisis, while providing long-term stability by navigating through successful customer relief negotiations.
Maintain asset integrity for long-term viability. SunCoke will ensure that assets are safeguarded during the current crisis situation to minimize any potential negative financial impact in the long-term. We will ensure our asset base is properly maintained, even as operating levels may fluctuate in the near term.

Achieve revised 2020 financial objectives. SunCoke is confident in our Consolidated Statementsliquidity position and will remain committed to achieving our revised financial targets of Income for this transaction. The Company incurred transaction costs totaling $10.7 million,Adjusted EBITDA of which $5.4 million were incurred by SunCoke and were capitalized as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The remaining transaction costs were incurred by the Partnership resulting in $4.4between $190 million and $4.9$200 million of expense included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $0.4 million were incurred during 2018. All transaction costs were excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. We do not expect to incur significant additional costs related to this transaction.2020.
With the closing of the Simplification Transaction, the income previously attributable to noncontrolling interest in the Partnership became 100 percent attributable to SunCoke and, therefore, will now be taxable to the Company, which increased the Company's estimated annual effective tax rate by approximately 8 percent.
India Equity Method Investment. On June 27, 2018, we sold our 49 percent investment in VISA SunCoke Limited ("VISA SunCoke") for cash consideration of $4.0 million. Consequently, we recognized $9.0 million of accumulated currency translation losses and incurred $0.4 million of transaction costs, resulting in a net $5.4 million loss from equity method investment during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense. The increase in depreciationDepreciation and amortization expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to2020 decreased as a result of the same prior year periods,impairment of our Logistics assets, which was driven by revisions maderecorded in the third quarter of 20182019. Depreciation expense increased $2.1 million and $4.1 million, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 for the oven rebuilds at Indiana Harbor, which were completed throughout 2019. This increase was mostly offset by the absence of additional depreciation associated with the upgrades to the estimated useful lives of certain assets in our Domestic Coke segment, primarily as a result of plans to replace major components of certain heat recovery steam generators, with upgraded materials and design. The revisions resulted in additional depreciation of $5.6 million, or $0.17 per common share from operationswhich was recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2019, and $11.3 million, or $0.17 per common share from operations during the six months ended June 30, 2019.same prior year periods.

Noncontrolling Interest. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest represents the common public unitholders’ interest in the Partnership prior to the closing of the Simplification Transaction as well as a 14.8 percent third-party interest in our Indiana Harbor cokemaking facility. Net income from Indiana Harbor has increased in the current year periods as a result of the completion of the oven rebuild project and resulting improved performance, which therefore resulted in an increase in noncontrolling interest. Prior to the Company acquiring all of the outstanding common units of the Partnership not already owned by SunCoke (the "Simplification Transaction"), net income attributable to noncontrolling interest also represented the common public unitholders’ interest in the Partnership.

Results of Reportable Business Segments
We report our business results through three segments:
Domestic Coke consists of our Jewell facility, located in Vansant, Virginia, our Indiana Harbor facility, located in East Chicago, Indiana, our Haverhill facility, located in Franklin Furnace, Ohio, our Granite City facility located in Granite City, Illinois, and our Middletown facility located in Middletown, Ohio.
Brazil Coke consists of operations in Vitória, Brazil, where we operate the ArcelorMittal Brazil cokemaking facility.
Logistics consists of CMT, located in Convent, Louisiana, KRT, located in Ceredo and Belle, West Virginia, Lake Terminal, located in East Chicago, Indiana, and DRT, located in Vansant, Virginia. Lake Terminal and DRT are located adjacent to our Indiana Harbor and Jewell cokemaking facilities, respectively.
Corporate expenses that can be identified with a segment have been included in determining segment results. The remainder is included in Corporate and Other, including activity from our legacy coal mining business.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance, which is used as the primary basis for the chief operating decision maker to evaluate the performance of each of our reportable segments. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for the reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. See Note 1413 to our consolidated financial statements.

(1)The increase in volumes was driven by improved performance from rebuilt ovens at our Indiana Harbor facility.
(2)Higher coal prices resulted in favorable coal cost recovery, benefiting revenues and Adjusted EBITDA. This benefit was offset by lower coal-to-coke yields, which decreased Adjusted EBITDA $4.0 million and $7.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and includes the impact of higher coal moistures as a result of heavy rainfall during the first half of 2019.
(3)Improved cost control resulted in lower pass-through operating and maintenance costs, decreasing our revenues.  Additionally, favorable recovery of operating and maintenance costs benefited Adjusted EBITDA during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

These costs were offset by offset by lower employee related costs in the same prior year periods, reflecting lower professional services.three months ended June 30, 2020 and further offset by the favorable impact of period-over-period, mark-to-market adjustments in deferred compensation driven by changes in the Company's share price during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary liquidity needs are to fund working capital, fund investments, service our debt, maintain cash reserves and replace partially or fully depreciated assets and other capital expenditures. Our sources of liquidity include cash generated from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility and, from time to time, debt and equity offerings. We believe our current resources are sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for our current business for the foreseeable future. However, the Company continues to evaluate whether any borrowings or other actions are needed to safeguard the business amidst the fluid market conditions and the uncertainty around the magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. As of June 30, 2019,2020, we had $102.2$81.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and $261.2$244.9 million of borrowing availability under our credit facilities.facility.
We may, from time to time, seek to retire or purchase additional amounts of our outstanding equity and/or debt securities through cash purchases and/or exchanges for other securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated
25

transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material. Refer to Share Repurchases below and "Part II - Item 2 - Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds" for additional discussion.
During the first quarter of 2020, the U.S. Department of Labor's Division of Coal Mine Workers' Compensation (“DCMWC”) requested SunCoke provide additional collateral of approximately $32 million to secure certain of its black lung obligations. SunCoke exercised its right to appeal the DCMWC’s determination and provided additional information supporting the Company’s position in May 2020. If the Company’s appeal is unsuccessful, the Company may be required to provide additional collateral to receive its self-insurance reauthorization from the DCMWC, which could potentially reduce the Company’s liquidity. See further discussion in Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements.
Cash Flow Summary
        The following table sets forth a summary of the net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:
 Six Months Ended June 30,
 20202019
 (Dollars in millions)
Net cash provided by operating activities$48.6  $35.6  
Net cash used in investing activities(36.9) (52.9) 
Net cash used in financing activities(27.7) (26.2) 
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents$(16.0) $(43.5) 
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $13.0 million to $48.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the corresponding prior year period. The current period reflects a favorable impact from primary working capital, which is comprised of accounts receivable, inventories and accounts payable, resulting from the timing of coal purchases and lower coal prices as compared to the same prior year period.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $16.0 million to $36.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the corresponding prior year period. The current year period reflects the absence of capital spending in connection with the oven rebuild project and the environmental remediation project, which was partially offset by capital spending for the foundry cokemaking growth project.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $27.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $26.2 million in the corresponding prior year period. The current year period reflects $8.9 million of cash payments to redeem $12.0 million face value of 2025 Senior Notes, repurchases of the Company's shares for total cash payments of $7.0 million under the repurchase programs discussed below and dividend payments to stockholders of $10.0 million. The prior year period reflects the Partnership's distribution payments to public unitholders of $14.2 million, the Partnership's repayment of $5.0 million on its revolving credit facility and certain payments for the Simplification Transaction totaling of $2.4 million. Additionally, repayments on the Financing Obligation totaled $1.4 million in both periods. See further discussion of debt activities in Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements.
Dividends
        On May 7, 2020, SunCoke's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.06 per share of the Company's common stock. This dividend was paid on June 4, 2020, to stockholders of record on May 21, 2020.
        Additionally, on August 3, 2020, SunCoke's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.06 per share of the Company's common stock. This dividend will be paid on September 1, 2020, to stockholders of record on August 18, 2020.
Share Repurchases
During the first quarter of 2020, the Company repurchased $7.0 million of our common stock, or 1.6 million shares, in the open market for an average share price of $4.29, leaving $96.3 million available under the authorized repurchase program as of June 30, 2020. There were no share repurchases during the second quarter of 2020 as the Company temporarily suspended additional repurchases under the authorized repurchase program. Refer to Item 2 of Part II to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details on the repurchase program.

Covenants
As of June 30, 2019,2020, we were in compliance with all applicable debt covenants. We do not anticipate a violation of these covenants nor do we anticipate that any of these covenants will restrict our operations or our ability to obtain additional financing. See Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements for details on debt covenants.
Credit Rating
In March 2019,2020, S&P Global Ratings reaffirmed our corporate credit rating of BB- (stable). Additionally, in May 2019,In April 2020, Moody’s Investors Service reaffirmed our corporate familycredit rating of B1 (stable).and changed the rating outlook to negative.
Cash Flow Summary
The following table sets forth a summary of the net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:
  Six Months Ended June 30,

Net cash used in financing activities (26.2) (23.2)
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents $(43.5) $22.8
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $49.7 million to $35.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the corresponding prior year period. The decrease was due to an unfavorable year-over-year change in primary working capital, which is comprised of accounts receivable, inventories and accounts payable, primarily driven by an increase in coal inventory as well as higher prices as compared to the prior year period. Inventory levels were temporarily increased to ensure adequate coal supply while we experienced logistical challenges caused by heavy rainfall in the first half of 2019 and to support rebuilt ovens at our Indiana Harbor facility. We anticipate that inventories will return to normal levels in the second half of the year. Additionally, the current year period was adversely impacted by the timing of a late customer payment of $19.1 million received on July 1, 2019.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased by $13.6 million to $52.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the corresponding prior year period. The current year period included higher capital spending as compared to the same prior year period, primarily related to the timing of capital expenditures as well as higher capital spending on the Indiana Harbor oven rebuild project and certain upgrades in order to improve the long-term reliability and operational performance of our assets.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities increased by $3.0 million to $26.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase was primarily the result of the Partnership's repayment of $5.0 million on its revolving credit facility and costs associated with the Simplification Transaction of $2.4 million, mostly offset by lower Partnership distributions to its public unitholders and the absence of the Company's purchase of outstanding Partnership common units in the corresponding prior year period.

Capital Requirements and Expenditures
Our operations are capital intensive, requiring significant investment to upgrade or enhance existing operations and to meet environmental and operational regulations. The level of future capital expenditures will depend on various factors, including market conditions and customer requirements, and may differ from current or anticipated levels. Material changes in capital expenditure levels may impact financial results, including but not limited to the amount of depreciation, interest expense and repair and maintenance expense.
Our capital requirements have consisted, and are expected to consist, primarily of:
Ongoing capital expenditures required to maintain equipment reliability, the integrity and safety of our coke ovens and steam generators and to comply with environmental regulations. Ongoing capital expenditures are made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets in order to maintain the existing operating capacity of the assets and/or to extend their useful lives and also include new equipment that improves the efficiency, reliability or effectiveness of existing assets. Ongoing capital expenditures do not include normal repairs and maintenance expenses, which are expensed as incurred;
Environmental remediation project expenditures required to implement design changes to ensure that our existing facilities operate in accordance with existing environmental permits; and
Expansion capital expenditures to acquire and/or construct complementary assets to grow our business and to expand existing facilities as well as capital expenditures made to grow our business through new markets or enable the renewal of a coke sales agreement and/or logistics service agreement and on which we expect to earn a reasonable return.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures, (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting despite the fact that many of our employees worked remotely for a portion of the year due to COVID-19. We are continually monitoring and assessing the effects of COVID-19 on our internal controls to minimize the impact to their design and operating effectiveness.






PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The information presented in Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is incorporated herein by reference.
Many legal and administrative proceedings are pending or may be brought against us arising out of our current and past operations, including matters related to commercial and tax disputes, product liability, employment claims, personal injury claims, premises-liabilitycommon law tort claims, allegations of exposures to toxic substances and general environmental claims. Although the ultimate outcome of these proceedings cannot be ascertained at this time, it is reasonably possible that some of them could be resolved unfavorably to us. Our management believes that any liabilities that may arise from such matters would not be material in relation to our business or our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows at June 30, 2019.2020.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There
        Material updates to our risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 are disclosed below.

The novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") and other possible pandemics and similar outbreaks may disrupt our operations and our customers’ and suppliers' operations, which could adversely impact our cash flows, financial position and results of operations.
        In December 2019, COVID-19, a novel strain of coronavirus surfaced in Wuhan, China. Since then, in 2020, COVID-19 has spread to other countries including the United States ("U.S.") and has become a global pandemic. Efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 including social distancing, travel bans and quarantines, are generally having negative impacts on the U.S. and global economy. These measures affect our operations and may hamper our efforts to provide investors with timely information and/or comply with SEC filing obligations. The pandemic and response to the pandemic continues to evolve, and any preventative or protective actions that governments or we may take in respect of the pandemic could result in periods of significant business disruption. While our facilities have continued to operate during the COVID-19 pandemic due to our inclusion in the Critical Manufacturing Sector as defined by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, COVID-19 has had, and may continue to have, a negative impact on our business and result of operations due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers. For example, certain of our steelmaking and logistics customers have been adversely impacted by the idling of manufacturing plants and closed international ports, respectively, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. In an effort to assist certain of our steelmaking customers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, we have implemented volume relief measures by providing near-term coke supply relief for such customers in exchange for a extending of certain contracts. These relief measures have negatively impacted our revenue in the near term and may negatively impact other results of operations in the near term and, if not effective in mitigating the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic, may adversely affect our business and results of operations. In addition, the progression of and global response to COVID-19 increases the risk of delays in construction activities related to our capital projects. The extent of such delays and other effects of COVID-19 on our anticipated investments to upgrade or enhance existing operations and to meet environmental and operational regulations is unknown, but could impact or delay the timing of anticipated benefits on capital projects. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our results of operations, and our customers' and suppliers' results of operations, are out of our control and will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the severity and duration of the pandemic and actions taken to contain it or mitigate its effects. As a result, the ultimate financial impact to SunCoke of the COVID-19 global pandemic cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, but could materially and adversely affect our business, financial position and results of operations.
